If you think that this issue is something new then you would be wrong as a similar issue plagued the Google Pixel 2 XL last year.

Google Pixel device launch seems to be incomplete without its fair share of hardware and software issues. According to new reports on the internet, some Google Pixel 3 XL users are complaining about distorted or buzzing sound from the speaker. What is worse about this issue is that some users are also claiming that this problem persists even at low volume. According to initial reports, the problem seems to be limited to Pixel 3 XL but regardless of that, it is a serious issue. To dig deeper into the complaints, users state that this problem is limited to “certain notifications sounds, songs, and videos”.

According to a report by Android Police, the complaints added that the buzzing sound was triggered by “low-to-mid-range frequencies” that range from 20 to 50Hz. One user reported that the issue about buzzing sound “went away” on its own while other users believe that the issue lies in the hardware and have raised a request for Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA). If you think that this issue is something new then you would be wrong as a similar issue plagued the Google Pixel 2 XL last year where Google ended up replacing the affected devices. According to the report, the company has not issued a response to this issue.
